Mostly, I am a dreamer
Howdy Kyle,
All that wish and hope possess the ability to dream... yet ...few would
dare to dream.
Life itself is a bittersweet dream.
I now challenge you toward your next venture. What is it?
Find Wm.Beaty. We'uns sittin around the free lunch counter at the Dime Box
Saloon decided to send a small token showing our graditude to Bill Beaty....
ok, ok... it wasn't but 2 bits.. but money talks.
Anyway.. off the money went by hoss back to the nearest post office over at
the capitol in Austin probably run by an ex-prof at UT. This was months ago.
We'd addressed the "free will offering" to Bill at the address shown on
website.. and shur 'nuff.. here the letter comes back marked wrong address.
You wouldn't believe how fur that letter traveled looking for Bill. Somewear
north of Salt Lake, the pony express rider lost his britches { and his
saddlebag) on the way to Reno. Stage coach robbers must have got 'aholt' of
the letter near Oregon pass but since nobody with enough sense to rob a
stage can read, the durn letter wound up in Seattle.
As far as we can determine from the scribbling on the front, the letter
searched for Bill everywhere in Washington state and 3 provinces in Canada
plus the north slope.
Kyle, Those were kind words you wrote. Thank you., If you see Bill Beaty
tell him to write home so we know he's still the ornery cuss he is .. and we
can find out his correct address.. cost us more than 20 dollars sending a
Texas Ranger to Seattle looking for him.. Tell him to send our ranger back
too, I just knew he'd get lost in a big city.
